Supreme Dragon Seal

Chapter 28: Conflict

Qi Bei seemed to have fallen into a strange state, completely unaware of what was happening to him. It wasnt until sunset that he suddenly woke up, realizing that a day had passed.

Scratching his head, Qi Bei tried to recall what had happened, but found that his mind was blank. It was as if he had simply closed his eyes and the day had disappeared.

Mother, Im leaving. Ill come to see you again next time, Qi Bei whispered to the portrait on the tombstone. He felt a sense of closeness to his mother in the portrait as if his soul had always been with this body, continuing the bloodline.

As he walked out of the cemetery, the setting sun cast a long shadow behind him. The environment in the western suburbs of the imperial capital was beautiful, with green hills and clear water, and the air filled with the fragrance of flowers and the songs of birds.

During sunset, many sons and daughters of the noble families came out to enjoy the scenery. Qi Beis lonely figure stood out in the crowd.

Young Master Qi Bei.

Greetings, Young Master.

Some noble young masters and ladies greeted Qi Bei, as there were not many people in the noble circle of the capital city who did not know him.

Qi Bei nodded lightly in response, ignoring some of the nobles invitations. He did not want to return to his decadent life of the past.

His soul had been lost before, but now he had dreams and pursuits, which were the foundation for him to stand in this world.

Qi Bei, over here! Just then, Qi Bei heard a clear and pleasant voice calling out to him.

He looked over and saw a group of young nobles dressed in luxurious clothing gathered around Princess Ming Yue and the sisters Feng Ruoyun and Feng Ruoyu by a small river not far away. The voice that called out to him excitedly was Feng Ruoyu.

Qi Bei had only intended to wave to them and leave, but he noticed that Princess Ming Yues eyebrows furrowed slightly, indicating that she was not too happy to see him.

Suddenly, Qi Bei changed his mind. He smiled slightly and walked over to them.

Little girl, youre neither big nor small. Yesterday you called me big brother, and today youre calling me by my name? Qi Bei came to Feng Ruoyus side and flicked her nose.

Hmph, annoying. Feng Ruoyu swatted away Qi Beis hand and pouted.

Their intimacy made the coldness in Ming Yues eyes even stronger, and Feng Ruoyun also felt a hint of unease in her heart.

Sister-in-law, you look really beautiful today. Qi Bei smiled and complimented Feng Ruoyun.

Thank you. Feng Ruoyun calmly accepted Qi Beis address and praise in front of everyone, making some noble youths who still held a glimmer of hope in their hearts look unhappy.

In the upper echelons of the Golden Leaf Empire, Feng Ruoyuns reputation is not lower than that of Princess Ming Yue. It is said that the Feng family is one of the masterminds behind the containment of the Goths in the south.

Naturally, there are many admirers.

At this moment, Qi Beis gaze met Ming Yues, with an imperceptible aggressiveness. But Ming Yue remained indifferent throughout as if looking at a stranger.

However, a hint of surprise flashed through Ming Yues heart.

In the past, Qi Beis gaze toward her was full of obsessive love and desire that could not be concealed.

But now, Qi Beis gaze was clear and penetrating, with only one thing in common: it still made her feel uncomfortable.

Ming Yue, its been a long time. Qi Bei smiled, his smile clean and refreshing, attracting the attention of some noble young ladies.

Yeah, I still owe you a thank you. Ming Yue said lightly, obviously perfunctory. She should have thanked him first for saving her life when he returned from the Undead Mountain Range. If they hadnt coincidentally met here, she wouldnt have taken the initiative to see him.

We are all in the same boat, why bother with such formalities. Qi Bei smiled and took two steps forward, leaving only one step away from Ming Yue. He could smell the faint fragrance of orchids on her body.

Ming Yues eyebrows lightly furrowed, but she didnt retreat. Her beautiful eyes stared directly at Qi Bei.

Woof Just then, a little white unicorn cub running around suddenly barked angrily, and a weak lightning bolt struck Qi Bei.

Qi Beis eyebrows raised, he took a step forward and his body brushed against Ming Yues delicate body, dodging the lightning bolt. At the same time, his hand brazenly wrapped around her waist, and their posture became ambiguous.

Ming Yue was also a mage, but she couldnt keep up with Qi Beis rhythm at such a short distance. Although she had magical defense items on her body, Qi Bei was only holding her waist, which could not be considered an attack.

Let go! Ming Yue exclaimed in a low voice, the anger gathering in her beautiful eyes causing her previously indifferent demeanor to suddenly become fierce.

Qi Bei quickly let go and took a step back upon seeing her anger, though he felt a bit regretful that the Dragon Seal on his palm didnt react earlier, indicating that the princess wasnt the extreme Yin body he was looking for. Nevertheless, her supple waist left a lingering sensation in his mind.

At that moment, the unicorn-like young beast, which had been following them like a puppy, suddenly pounced ferociously. Qi Bei stared at it intensely, causing the young beast to suddenly stop and jump fearfully into Ming Yues embrace, whimpering continuously.

Ming Yue was surprised; the unicorn was a seventh-order magic beast, and even though it was just in its infancy, it wouldnt be afraid of fourth or fifth-order adult magic beasts. How could it be so scared just by Qi Beis gaze? He must have played some trick.

The famous Nord family descendants are nothing more than ruffians and thugs, their thousand-year-old family name is nothing but a sham. Just then, a handsome young man in a light blue water elemental magic robe walked out, looking at Qi Bei mockingly.

Qi Bei glanced at the young man and could tell from his guild logo on the robe that he was from the Saint Yana Alliance.

Qi Bei laughed and asked, May I know the name of this esteemed mage?

I am

Smack!

The young man was about to proudly introduce his noble identity, but before he could speak, Qi Bei swiftly slapped him across the face, leaving five bloody finger marks on his fair, stunned face.

Upon further thought, Im not interested in knowing who you are. You insulted our Nord family, and Im letting you off easy with just one slap. Next time you act arrogant, dont forget whose territory youre on. Qi Bei said coldly before turning around and walking away.

The young man came back to his senses, his handsome face flushed with anger. His rage was causing him to lose his sanity. He raised his magic wand, and the dense water magic elements began to gather in the air.

Prince, think twice about this. His older brother, who is also my brother-in-law, is known as the Nord Tiger. His temper is a hundred times worse than his. He easily cripples peoples limbs. At this moment, Feng Ruoyu opened her big lake-green eyes and advised with a kind face.

The young mans incantation of the magic spell was interrupted, and he couldnt continue. He had also heard of the Nord Tigers reputation, who was one of the three commanders of the Black Armored Army, renowned throughout the world. It was said that the left leg of the newly crowned king of the Ink Jade Kingdom in the Saint Yana Alliance was crippled by him.

Qi Bei, youd better apologize. Just when everyone thought that the matter was over, Ming Yue suddenly spoke up.
